Open challenge from Team Tacoma to Team Vancouver to continue that final game that went to them in a split decision. It’s a shame we ran out of time. I have a photo of the whole map, and with Karl’s close-up of Europe, it should be easy to recreate.

PS After posting, it’s apparent that I don’t know how to post pictures on this forum.

Face to face, if possible! You are welcome at my home, anytime, or maybe I could head up there again some time. As that may be the most unlikely, I think it would be fun to try play-by-YouTube for the first time. If you don’t like that format, or can’t keep a board set up for too long, we can play-by-forum on Triple A.

HI All
This is our third Battle of Long Island held in Whitestone Queens at Grace Episcopal Church. We hope to start around 10 and go until 10pm or later. You can come in earlier and start setting up. All are welcome and we have an undefeated team in Global 40 2nd edition rules bid for allies and WBC champions as well as beginners welcome. Its about a good time. If you play as a team and know the game you can play in 2 games at once. So far we have 17 definite and 7 more possible. In the past we have had between 16 and 26 players. Easy parking in church or directly across street in mall, light refreshments served including doughnuts, cheese, bread, drinks, and a refrigerator. We have a guy selling old games. We hope to get 10 per person for the Church.
So far we have:
-4 games of Global we want to set up could be more. (one blown up map)
-2 guys want to play 1914
-1 guy with a 4 by 6 map for the latest 1942 2nd edition
Let me know all welcome. I can send more information as needed

Due to holidays and other commitments our numbers were whittled down to just three players this time, but that meant more action for us!
We played 1914. Dukla passer played Italy and Russia with a non-forum player taking UK, USA and France. Private Panic played Germany, AH & Turkey.
With fewer players we managed to complete more turns - eight in all. However, we forgot that in 1914 unsupported infantry have an attack power of 2, instead playing them at 1, as for the ww2 A&A versions. Dukla passer spotted this after perhaps the 5th turn but we decided that we should continue as we had started.
That of course slowed down those advances which were meant to swiftly eliminate an enemy power - giving both R and T an extended life.
Nevertheless, Moscow fell in turn 8. By contrast, T fared much better and had by the end begun to overcome the allied forces arrayed against it. This is despite being reduced to 9 ipcs at one stage.
Elsewhere:
The USA was bringing to an end G’s ability to roam Africa at will.
F’s forces had taken control of Alsace.
A-H dominant in northern Italy and at the gates of Rome, although that was heavily defended by multi-national forces.
AH also therefore threatening southern F, which had served to divert F reinforcements away from the G front, giving hope to the Axis that Alsace would be recaptured.
Allied fleets in control of the Med. G and UK navies continually contesting the North Sea. Two significant naval engagements there won by the UK, despite one being on absolutely equal terms and the other with a clear Axis advantage.
Private Panic felt that the game should be declared a draw as neither side had a clear winning position. Dukla passer felt that the Axis had a 60/40 advantage, perhaps because of Turkey’s renaissance. He is a gentleman!

The Battle of Britain 1942.2 event is quarterly. All A&A players are welcome. We can currently accommodate three more.
The Winter 2015/16 event is on 7 February. Then the Spring 2016 one on 8 May.
If you are interested please contact Private Panic via this thread or a PM.
